Release context

Single Malt Scotch · Lagavulin (OB) · 12 Year Old · 56.4% ABV

The annual cask-strength Special Release. A blue-chip Islay name, but Diageo's larger outturns mean the scarcity premium needs patience to materialise.

Collector thesis — Waarom zouden verzamelaars deze fles over vijf jaar nog willen?
